Download a list of files from excel file

Hi, this is great, but I need a list of the file names without their extension.. I find it faster to stick the folder path into a browser and then copy and paste into excel. But yes, even better when excel is set up to extract the data with a click of the button. Hi, what i like to know is…. In this example it would be I need a macro which can automate the work of renaming the pdf with amount within the pdf, instead of depending on a software.

For B, the idea is almost same as above except for one revision, let say rev. I only tried the first method and it works perfectly for me… thank you so much for saving me days of boring inputing!! I used the code above to obtain a list of files. Is there a way to correct for this? Hey, I have a ecxel sheet which have some product names, and also have a folder which have some pdf files named same as in cell data, like if cell A2 value is apple1, Pdf file name is apple1.

I want to list the names and duration of all videos in a folder and its subfolders using Excel VBA. Also I am failing to loop through subfolders. What I want to achieve is for the macro to loop through all subfolders in the the given root folder and list only video names and duration in columns A and B.

Some help with this is truly appreciated. Option Explicit. With fldr. Namespace SourceFldr. For Each sFile In oDir. Items Cells i, 1. Sumit Bansal right? As a matter of fact you are my excel HERO. But upon discovering your skills and experience I think I still have a a long way to go. Thank you very much for this blog. You are doing wonderful work Sumit to educate Excel users.

God bless you. It will be very useful for all Excel users and saves tons of time and effort. Current version is 7. I do not have any pesronel intrest in the product except to make it known to many Excel users to benifit in their work.

It was developed by Bastien Mensink from Netherlands way back in I am using it since that time. Feed back on your experience is appreciated. Read from folder, and delete all columns except file name. Save and load to table. No macro, no formula involved. Since it has not been corrected I assume that it has not been reported yet. Hi Sumit, Great trick.

Thanks a lot. However I was wondering if there is a way to extract the file path as well along with the file name. But I have one more question.

Can this be used to get a value from a cell in these docs as well? I get a list of all docs in a given folder, can I then get a value from a cell in each of those docs if its all the same cell in each doc?

Hi Sumit, great tutorial. I used this because files are constantly being added to a specific folder. This allows for the names of those new folders to show. Since I do not know the names of the new files that will be created I was hoping to then use the results of this in an external reference formula. Do you know if this is possible? One method I have used before uses the command prompt. Navigate to the folder you want to extract file names from.

This will create a text file in the same directory that you can then open in Excel for further processing. Make File Name Hyperlink? I have a single folder with multiple sub-folders each with multiple files, can I extract at the highest folder level? Hei Sumit. I got Folder name in A1. And my required folder is on Sharepoint.

I like your video lesson. Thank you. Husen Kabeer, myaquadome yahoo. Hello Husen.. Check the named range reference. It seems your named range is not referring to the cell that has the folder path. Sumit, is there a way for this formula to look within a series of sub-folders for the same results.

Thanks for commenting David.. With this method, you can only get file names from a specified folder. Hi, Sumit Googled for a few minutes just now. I love your work. Found an alternative method that actually lists the file names as hyperlinks. It would automatically update if you open the workbook or you press F9 to force a calculation , or even if you make any change in the worksheet.

Hello Sumit, thank you for your post. Made my life easier. Never the less I still have a problem with the update. It does not update automatically. I have to drag the formula again each time I open the document, or either double click the cell to updated itself. Do you know what I might do wrong? If you now click LOAD, it will load it back into Excel as a table which you can now work with see below.

This is great if you have a folder with only files in it i. You have to choose a folder which has no other folders in it! What can you do if you want to export folder and subfolders into a list in Excel?
